You iPad4 is likely to be too far behind to be updated using the OTA update method from iPad settings.
You will instead need to use either a PC (with iTunes installed) or a Mac (with iTunes or Finder - as appropriate for the installed version of macOS).

As you are clearly aware, iPad4 cannot be updated beyond iOS 10.3.3 (WiFi Only models) and iOS 10.3.4 (WiFi & Cellular). iPad4 lacks the minimum hardware requirements needed to run more recent versions. The 32-bit platform upon which the iPad4 is based is effectively obsolete, update support having ended September 2017.
